There are several distinct topics for those interested in culture. The Sauga Must Maja offers the women’s ensemble “Nõianeitsid”. As part of the project to establish a ceramics workshop, the basement rooms of Jänesselja Kindergarten were renovated and a ceramic kiln was acquired for activities. This brings together a cultural group activity and a workshop-setup project as separate points of interest.

The creation of wildflower meadows is another kind of initiative: in spring 2023, pilot areas were established in Sauga together with local communities. The involvement of local communities is an explicit part of this initiative. Sauga can therefore be viewed from several perspectives: a cultural ensemble, the establishment of a ceramics workshop and pilot areas created with community involvement.

The municipal project, which ran from 2017 to 2020, envisaged building a 500-metre footpath and cycle path along Jänesselja Street in Sauga alevik. The path was intended to connect Pärnu linn with industrial and service businesses, bus stops, a youth centre, a kindergarten and a shop in Sauga alevik. It was also intended to enable safe travel within Sauga alevik and for people from Pärnu and the village of Eametsa.

The Allika and Nigula project described a different connection. It was intended to provide pedestrians, cyclists and other users of light vehicles with a safe route from the Eametsa residential area via Sauga alevik and across the Sauga jõgi to the village of Nurme. The main point of comparison is the destinations served: the Jänesselja project focuses on facilities in Sauga alevik and travel within the village and from Pärnu and Eametsa, while Allika and Nigula describes a connection across the river to Nurme.

Sauga võimla sports hall can be booked online and without contact; access details are sent by SMS. This information about the hall differs from the route initiatives: it describes a booking process, whereas the route projects describe the connections they were intended to provide. If using the hall is relevant to your plans, the booking method and SMS access details are the practical information to note.
